Le terme générique « acte de concession », quant à lui, s'emploie dans plusieurs domaines du droit lorsqu'on parle du document comme tel, et ce, en France comme au Canada. Cependant, dans le contexte de concession de propriété publique, on emploie plutôt « patent » ou « land patent », avec comme équivalent « acte de concession de propriété », lorsqu'il s'agit du document. Lorsqu'il s'agit de l'action de concéder le titre, on emploie « concession de propriété ». 1, record 1, French, - acte%20de%20concession%20de%20propri%C3%A9t%C3%A9
